HIFU Skin Tightening Treatment In Coomera
HIFU Skin Tightening
FU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound) has a lengthy and remarkable track record of effectiveness within the medical industry, and now the same technology is being employed for advanced facelift and body sculpting treatments.
Though there are numerous non-surgical facelift treatments that can effectively target the top layers of the skin (the superficial dermis).
HIFU is unique in its capability to target focal points at multiple depths beneath the surface, including the dermis, right down to the SMAS (superficial muscular aponeurotic system), which is the layer adjusted by surgeons during a traditional facelift.
High Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU), also referred to as ‘Ultrasound Facelift’ or ‘4D HIFU’ or ‘4D HIFU Body’, is rapidly becoming one of the most sought-after face and neck lifting treatments as well as body sculpting treatments in Ireland today.
Unlike surgery, a HIFU facelift is significantly safer and more affordable, which is why it is gaining increasing popularity. HIFU is a one-off therapy that yields firmer, tighter, lifted facial skin or a sculpted body.

What are the benefits of HIFU
The beauty of HIFU is that the benefits can be seen instantaneously, with optimum results generally expected after 20 days. However, depending on the area of treatment, optimum results can take three to six months post treatment. The stimulating effect of HIFU promotes the synthesis of new collagen which will help your skin maintain its natural, youthful glow for a long period of time.

How does HIFU work?
The applicator employs multiple focused beams of ultrasound energy, enabling them to pass through multiple layers of the skin. Individually, these beams have no effect on the skin or the layers beneath it. However, when the beams converge on a targeted point, they generate a nodal point of thermal energy, contracting the underlying muscle and promoting collagen regrowth. Consequently, the face tightens, and signs of ageing are diminished.
HIFU FACE utilizes ultrasonic energy to penetrate deep below the skin and fat layer of the face to gently but effectively target connective tissue. Connective tissue is a firm, tough layer that supports the neck and facial contours. Ageing and the passage of time causes connective tissues to droop. High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound tightens loose connective tissue, creating firmness and lifting to areas of sagging skin. The layer of tissue targeted is the same tissue that a plastic surgeon tightens and shifts during a surgical facelift or brow lift.
HOW MANY SESSIONS SHOULD I HAVE AND WHAT RESULTS SHOULD I EXPECT WITH HIFU FACE?
The beauty of HIFU is that its benefits can be seen instantaneously, with optimal results expected after just 20 days or, in some cases, three to six months. The stimulating effect of HIFU promotes the synthesis of new collagen, which helps your skin maintain its natural, youthful glow.
Unlike some non-invasive treatments that necessitate a series of sessions over several months, HIFU generally only requires a single treatment. However, results may vary from person to person. Occasionally, a follow-up treatment may be necessary depending on your responsiveness to the procedure. The most noticeable results should be observed within the first 20 days following the treatment. Further enhancements may be achieved for up to six months, and results can last up to two years.
It is however important to keep in mind that the ideal candidate is a person with good skin elasticity in their 40s to 50s with mild to moderate skin sagging of the face, neck or eye area.
Patients outside this age group or with more compromised skin quality may still benefit from the treatment but would often require 2 or 3 treatments and should expect less dramatic outcomes. Follow up treatments depending on the area and tissue thickness shouldn’t be done sooner than 2 – 6 months post to original treatment with the recommendation of longer rather than shorter period between treatments, in order to give skin and tissue the full cycle of collagen stimulation and regrowth.
